I see London, I see France

Leather Jacket - Burshka // Studded Necklace - Top Shop // Sweater - Zara // Boots - Doc Martens

But I don't see anyone's underpants. That'd just be weird.
Spent the day in Camden Market, I think.  There was a fantastic vintage store there called Rockit Vintage, as well as a bunch of punk stores with studded bracelets and red, plaid pants with zippers.  Everyone was so stylish.  There were tons of people with pink or purple hair, funky boots, creepers, and leather.  I admire people like that, who can keep one sense of style that is super outrageous.  I'm envious of them.
We then took the Tube to the War Museum and toured around there for a couple hours.  It was so interesting that we had to ask our teachers and tour guide if we could stay for a bit longer.

jolly good,
Annika

Moshi Moshi

Studded Bracelets - Top Shop // Ring - Russia // Skirt - Zara // Belt - Vintage Moschino

Just a quick post, because I'm off to go sailing with my dad.

Anyway, my life is officially complete.  I die.
I have been pining over this belt (yes. it's the real deal EEEEEEEPPPP) for a couple years and I finally found it in a tiny, itty bitty vintage store.  Even the finding of a vintage store in Singapore is something of a treasure in itself; there are like none.  
I've been wearing the belt proudly, changing my outfit every ten minutes or so, and  experimenting different ways to wear it.  Definetely bringing it with me to london, which is in t-minus seven days!  Gotta get to a packin'!

See you later alligator,
Annika

Goldmine Valentine

I struck gold when I found this skirt. Literally! 
It was hiding in a sale pile of sweaters at Zara in Ion Orchard.  Almost broke into tears when I had to go meet a friend and part with this work of art.  So, I hid it. Yes, I am one of those people.  But, don't lie, you'd hide this skirt too if you found it on sale in just your size!  An hour later I ran to my hiding spot and brought it by the counter.  
I walked out of that store with my golden ticket.

Hat, Body Chain, Blouse - Topshop // Skirt - Zara // Purse - Chanel

How funny! I look like I have no eyebrows :3 
Who am I kidding? My eyebrows are invisible. Ah, the curses of being blonde!


Anyway, these were the last photos taken on the last day of my stay in the Maldives.  It's back to work work work.  
But in a couple weeks I'm off to London for a week or so!  It's my first time, too! Well, technically I went when I was a baby, but I was too little too remember.  So, it'll be my second time but the first time that I'll remember. I've got some serious shopping to do, any suggestions from Londoners out there on what to bring? Coming from a girl whose lived in Singapore her whole life, SOS! 
Lorday *throws hands in the air *
I will definitely need to download some good zombie movies for the ride over there. I mean, you always need to be prepared for a zombie apocalypse. Even when you're overseas. Priorities, guys, priorities.


love,
Annika

Under the Sea

Dress - Vintage // Belt - J. Crew // Shoes - Macy's
How could Ariel, the little mermaid, ever want to leave the ocean?  I mean seriously, look at that colour, the lapping waves, the cool sand.  What would compel her to come on land, to the honking cars, and all the stress?  I guess, to quote Sebastian, "The seaweed is always greener in somebody else's lake"
Although...Ariel was in love with a human.  I'll give her that.


love,
Annika
